LAVENDER PINOCCHIO. (Pat. 947) Each $2.00, 3 for $5.00, doz. $20.00 
An entirely new color in roses! The masses of tight buds are warm 
chocolate-brown overlaid by dusty pink. As the buds open, this dusty 
pink is followed by smoky pink-lavender. When at last the flower is 
wide open, the colors soften to dainty silver-lavender with faint sugges- 
tions of rosy pink. The bright yellow stamens make a lovely contrast at 
this stage. Each cluster frequently has a dozen blooms, ranging from 
tight buds to the lovely, 
wide-open, 3-inch flower. 
Delightful oriental  fra- 
grance. See illustration on 
back cover. 



















FLORADORA 
MASQUERADE. (P.A.F.) Each $2.00, 3 for $5.00, doz. $20.00 
Truly unique and different, each cluster of 10 to 25 buds shows blooms of yellow, red, 
pink, lemon and sometimes orange. All these colors appear at once in a magnetic 
combination. Each bud is golden yellow, with tiny vermilion marks. The center bud 
in each cluster opens first, becoming rose-pink as the petals unfold. Gradually 
the rose-pink deepens until at last itis deep red. While the first bud in any cluster is 
going through these stages, other buds are gradually developing, each one passing 
through the same lovely color sequence. Clusters of 25 to 30 buds on one stem are not 
uncommon.
